It symbolizes the crossroads of ideas.

Because capitalists are assholes who steal from both ends of the Working Class: they cram down wages while soaking the consumers for all that they are willing to spend.

And it is this method by which the Parasite Class engineers trickle-up economics to achieve such obscene wealth.

Because what come out of them is shit?

I haven't read the article, but I assume the real answer is because it's a visual representation of a bunch of vectors. These models use a ton of vector math to function.

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe 27 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What’s your vector, Victor?

I'm over done and under over.

I'd have thought it's a stylised asterisk, since it's meant to be a do-anything machine.

Also stars and diamonds. I guess a star is a kind of butthole.

[–] moondoggie@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Especially Jared Leto. MAJOR butthole.

An asterisk is used to indicate special conditions or limitations, often found in the small print of documents.

Because the people in charge of managing llms are shit. They were all birthed from a dirty asshole.

[–] elvith@feddit.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So did you. And I. The big question is what made us change while they didn’t?

[–] Meat_Of_Nan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wait. You're saying that you were born from a dirty asshole and so was I? Does that mean we're siblings?

[–] elvith@feddit.org 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

No, I mean we humans are deuterostomes - meaning at one point in our embryonic phase we were nothing but literal assholes. Then we developed from there (hopefully)

[–] Meat_Of_Nan@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Oh that's way more intelligent and scientifically grounded than what I was going for... So I assume this means I cannot mark you as down as "Ass-Kin"

Claude's logo looks like it's about to prolapse

Was this article written by AI?

What's the second album and ant smuggling got to do with anus logos?

[–] Object@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

Feedback examined the logos of OpenAI, Apple Intelligence, Claude and others, and we can confirm that, yes, they do bear more than a passing resemblance to a sphincter, and once you see it you can’t unsee it.

Do people really

I’m reading Breakfast Of Champions now. Don’t spoil it.

This author gets a chub every time they open the dialer on their phone, I guarantee it.
